Answered January 18, 2013 11:30. You have the right to replace your lawyer if you are dissatisfied with his work. You may owe him a fee or a percentage of the fee for the work he has performed. Discuss the matter first with your current lawyer to see if you can resolve your differences.

Contingency fee agreements are not usual, but more details are needed from the facts you posted. You may want to discuss them off line with an attorney.
